Wishes

She sleeps soundly behind me, oblivious as our elders hapilly enjoy their frivolous game of cards,
as the young ones gather by their laptops in a frenzy of DotA,
and I sit here, my back facing her as I feel the agony of trying to admire her innocent beauty,
to know if I had done so,
many eyes would bear witness, many thoughts and whispers will materialize,
that my unrequited feelings for my own kin, my cousin, still remain over the years, untainted.

Would she ever see me differently?
Does she know that I still harbor a longing for her?
Does she know that the reason I did so much for her,
was because I possessed a frail, subtle wish,
that she would look at me differently?

Everyone knew I was in love with her when I was younger. I was not subtle about my feelings.
Do they know whether I still feel for her?


It matters not now, I'm afraid.
She already belongs to another.
I could swear my eyes turn green every time I see them together,
so happy, so oblivious to my pain.
But...shouldn't I be happy for her?
Shouldn't I be content that she has found happiness,
instead of me just feeling hurt, left-out, and ignored?

But would she ever see me as someone worthy of her?
Would she ever see me as someone attractive? Someone who stands out?
I doubt so. Even if it pains me to see it this way. I doubt so.

My wishes go unheard. My desires go unfulfilled. My agony continues on.
Woe is me, for I am a lovesick fool, who cannot even look away from my own cousin.
I curse myself for feeling this way. Even if I have learned to let her go, bit-by-agonizing-bit.

Here I am,
in the midst of writing a fan novel about two cousins,
Ben and Gwen,
who became lovers.
I pour out all the feelings I felt, all the seemingly wrong emotions I have,
into this novel.
In a way, I am jealous.
Jealous by the fact the characters I have in my make-believe world are happier than I am.
Jealous by the fact that these cousins can show their love for one another,
while I remain here with these unrequited feelings.


I hate myself for this.
I hate myself for falling for her every time she smiles at me.
I hate myself for never prying my eyes off her every time I see her.
I hate myself for ever loving her.

If Even Heroes Bleed....

Am I not good enough?

An i not worthy of your notice?

Have I not bent myself to help you,
so much so to the brink of me being broken?

Have I not been through so much for you, only to accept your appreciation as a friend?

Have you not noticed the truth behind my kindness?

Do you not see that I would do anything for you, if you were to ask?

Do you not know that without you, I would not be able to see what is wrong with me?

Can you finally realize, that you are more important to me than you think,
and that I need you. More than what seems to be shown.

Illusions of The Heart and How They Hurt

Have you ever met a path that led you down different trails?

I have.

It sucks. It hurts. It agonizes.

Why?

Because I have feelings for 4 different girls.
All so different. All so desirable.

Call me a lovesick idiot. Go ahead.
I deserve it. I deserve it for dividing my heart for so many when I should be focusing on just 1.

Why do I divide my attention among the 4 of them?
Maybe...maybe it's because I keep thinking, not even one of them would ever fall for a guy like me.

Two of them already have boyfriends. And I feel so utterly selfish, and stupid, for wishing that they weren't couples in the first place. It wouldn't be fair, to take away the happiness of others for my own selfish reasons.

One of them is classy and moderately wild, someone I would have to sprint to catch up with. But for her, I would. But she already belongs to another. And I can only look away ruefully.

Another is a girl that is so unattainable, so high and mighty(in a good way), that I fade total comparison. I don't think I'm her type. I'm not good enough, I guess.

Another girl is one that I had feelings for the longest. She's comfortable around me, as I am comfortable with her. I knew her since I could even remember.
I bet you're thinking 'girl-next-door',right?
Wrong.
She's my cousin.
I know, I know. It's social taboo and all that crap.
But she is, without a doubt, one of the most beautiful girls I have ever laid eyes on.
And she is extremely smart. Understanding. Kind.
But she too, has a boyfriend.
And when I first fell in love with her during my early teen years,
I made the bloody big mistake of being so obvious about my feelings for her.
And guess what? It was unrequited.
Does she know I still have feelings for her?
If she did, she'd never return it to me. Never.

Then there's the last girl, the last person I fell for recently. Well, if you can call sometime mid-last year recent.
She's kind, intelligent, sweet, gorgeous, an anime fan like myself and
possesses a beautiful air around her.
She's...perfect. But it always seems like she's always too busy for me.
No, I don't blame her. How could I?
What grounds do I possess to do such a thing?
I made the stupid mistake of confessing, only to be gently rejected by her, like so many other girls before.

Y'know, it hurts. It really hurts to know that I'm always never their type, no matter how hard I try to fit in, no matter how difficult it is to be have feelings for so many different girls.

I don't even know what to write anymore. I don't know how to voice out how I feel. I don't know what to do with myself, feeling so pathetic when I stop to think about how far I got myself into this mess.

I look out into the world and see so many happy people in relationships, or those who even qualify to potentially HAVE a relationship, and I ask myself.
"Why can't I be someone who deserves better?"

Surprised! Well, not really...

Align Center
If you thought that the act of trying to ban Avril off our our stages last time was bad enough, today's newspaper must've sent your eyes rolling in annoyance.

That overzealous party that can't even win state election
without threatening to bore you to death
has proposed to ban our favorite Barbadian singer.

Guess who?






Yup, our beloved Rihanna.

Here's what the Star had to say about them. Mind, it's not even in the top 20 topic in Star Online. Hehe...

Its Federal Territory Youth chief Kamaruzaman Mohamad said inviting the Barbados-born singing sensation to Malaysia was “akin to insulting eastern culture, belittling local artistes, intentionally causing losses to the country’s economy and supporting Israel’s war policy, which is supported by America”. (Huh? So artistes are secret war-helpers now, eh? )

The *ahem!* Publically Astoundingly Stupid wing said it also found the Grammy award winner to be unsuitable because she often performed suggestively and wore skimpy, sexy outfits. (Who doesn't these days?)

Kamaruzaman said local concert sponsor Celcom should give priority to eastern cultures and local artistes. (Don't we also get a lot of that already? We want something different once in awhile....)

He said Rihanna’s appearance here would result in an outflow of local currency to the United States, and in turn, cause loss to the country and suffering to the Palestinians. (Double Huh?)

He reasoned that the United States supplies arms to its ally Israel from contributions and taxes collected from Americans. (Are you some James Bond in a sarong, buddy?)

“Whether Rihanna realises it or not, we know that the taxes she has paid also contributed to the war in Gaza,” Kamaruzaman said. (Sarong Stalker...)



Lemme know what you thing about it, ok guys?

Cheers.
